Imagine how much more they would have lost if that had given in to Young’s demands instead.
Yeah, would some tell these retards the whole market has been down > 10% over the last three weeks...
It has the stench of Leftism where they try to rally around a turd like Neil Young to somehow validate him and make it look like he came out on top.
If they cave to these 60s relics, they’ll lose a lot more.
Well, of REAL subscription $$. Not sure what $ora$$ is offering them.

If they hold the line they’ll gain.
Tech has all been selling off recently.
They’re making up news.
The whole market tanked in the past month, especially tech stocks. Last month was a bloodbath for everyone.
It wasn’t Joe Rogan, it was Let’s go Brandon.
Spotify supported Rogan while throwing out trinkets to the left and still lost $2B in value. Investors see a bunch of artists following Neil Young and revenue going down. But a lot of it is skittish behavior anytime there is controversy associated with a business .
The key thing will be to watch the longer trend line. Spotify may do OK if they don’t cave.
There goes their narrative.
Temporary paper loss versus their integrity 🤪
Come on folks... Send them some financial love...
The market is reactive. The haters will tire and move on, and the stock will rebound. If Spotify had cancelled Joe Rogan their stock would have tanked hard and they would have seen a mass exodus of subscribers.
LMAO.
All the while, Rogan laughs all the way to the bank.
Fake News - straight, no chaser
full on manipulation by the left to destroy anyone or anything that doesn’t stand for their tyrannical propaganda.
Hmmm.
Correlation is NOT causation!
